POLYDRAMA

A concert, an accessible musical performance, with songs from their self-titled first full-length album, which is expected to be released in the coming months, with pieces that shaped their personal aesthetic identity as well as with their previous releases. In POLYDRAMA the ody icons reveal the materials from which tears are made and turn on the lights in the secret rooms of our most personal confessions.

In “POLYDRAMA” the songs are signed by ody icons and the record, like the concert, is musically produced by Fotis ingie Papatheodorou with whom they have been collaborating for the last few years (EP “drama” & “We cry at night“).

“This is a musical imprint of my journey through the various rooms of my human experience thus far. It’s intense, it’s overwhelming, it’s sad and playful, political and emotional. It is a variety of elements that make up my fragility, my essence, my strength. I am this journey. this journey is me. It is much, it is multiple, it is plural, it is maximum. I went through dark rooms and bright rooftops to come back and put the notes on my piano honestly.

Please visit POLYDRAMA the same way you would visit your soul: gently but thoroughly, with care and bravery.” -ody icon

The night is opened by the distorter of rembetic sounds and tour guide of dark soundscapes ECATI, presenting material from his first album, while the concert features mc mi55t, who also participates in the POLYDRAMA album, as a special guest.
